## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

PILOT DEPARTED FROM CAUSEY AIRPORT AND STAYED IN THE TRAFFIC PATTERN. HE COMPLETED ONE LAP IN THE PATTERN AND DID A FULL STOP LANDING. HE THEN DID ANOTHER LAP IN THE PATTERN AND JUST BEFORE STARTING THE FLARE THE PILOT HEARD A SCRAPING SOUND AND EXECUTED A GO AROUND. HE STAYED LOW IN THE PATTERN AND CAME AROUND AGAIN AND LANDED NO PROBLEM. WHEN HE PARKED THE AIRCRAFT HE CONFIRMED THAT HE HAD STRUCK THE PROPELLER.
